In 24 hours we'll get the results back
and then we'll have proof.
I need something.
A UK passport for a child.
Why are we here?
Your boy's gone Jodie.
No way I'm letting you have mine!
They wouldn't even let them onto the ferry.
She's looking at at least ten years.
You owe her, Jason.
What will happen to the boy?
Nothing good.
We've just had the results back
from the DNA test and Daniel is Tom.
He's your son.
Tom!
Tom?
Tom!
*CREDITS*
Well, you certainly won't be pushed for space.
There's a guitar in my bedroom, if Yas hasn't pawned it.
Has someone been staying here in Tom's bed?
Yeah, it was a colleague of mine.
I thought Daniel and I were gonna be away,
but I'll let him know he has to find somewhere else.
Tom, Daniel, I don't know what to call him.
Just ask him.
Yeah.
We could find a place for him,
just so you both get used to the idea.
No, it's what he wants.
It's what we both want.
If either of you change your mind.
I'll be back in a day or two, all right?
Hungry?
Can I ask you something?
Yeah, of course.
What happened to me?
The last day that you saw me.
Well, we were...
we were having a picnic by the lake.
It was my parents, my brother,
me, you, Kate and your dad.
You met him at the recording studio.
Yeah.
You made kind of a big thing about introducing us.
He's a good man on the whole, bit weak maybe.
What was I like?
You used to make me sing to you for ages
before you'd go to sleep, and you loved making me laugh.
Every memory I have of you, you're smiling.
When I think back, I think you were holding us all together.
But all of you were there,
and none of you saw what happened?
For a moment, maybe...
30 seconds.
I think we all thought one of the others had you.
Biggest mistake of my life.
What and then I just disappeared?
No, there was a couple there, walking.
They never came forward.
I think that was Mark and his wife.
Do you think he's in prison now?
I think they'll keep him on remand until the trial.
I really wish that I can make everything fine right now,
but I think for a bit we're both
just gonna have to busk it and see where we end up.
It's me.
You did some papers for me.
Ade someone.
Yes.
What was the name of the employer?
Art in Nature.
Text me the number.
What are you doing?
We're going home.
We'll get out of your way.
Jodie's coming with, they'll be here any minute.
What's that got to do with us?
Right, okay.
Do what you want.
Kate, we can't choose
whether we're part of the family or not.
If you wanna go home and hide, that's fine,
but I think Lola would prefer to stay here with us,
wouldn't you darling?
Yep!
Yep.
Jodie.
Hello Daniel.
I'm your dad's wife, call me Kate.
Hi.
We're all through here.
Are we thinking Tom or Daniel?
I don't mind.
It's up to you.
I'm kind of used to Daniel, if that's okay.
Ready?
Ben.
Hiya.
And of course you know Jason.
Yeah.
Lola, you wanna say hi to Daniel?
Hi.
And this is your grandmother.
And there was me worrying it might be awkward.
Here we are. Could you manage the drinks?
Yeah, sure.
Do you wanna?
Why are mom and Jason?
What's that?
Prawn mayonnaise.
Spit it out.
What?
Spit it out.
What the hell's the matter with you?
He's allergic to shellfish, he could go into shock.
For God's sake, Ben!
He seems okay.
I eat it all the time.
Honestly, I'm fine.
Ben, Ben.
Yeah, thanks.
Might be nice to spend some time with some actual humans.
Blimey!
Daniel and I thought you could do with a hand.
Hey.
Hi.
Remember how these work?
Hey!
At last, someone to do the heavy lifting.
I suppose it's gonna take some getting used to.
Missed so much time with him.
Just have to look forward.
Just wish things felt like they did before between us.
Oh.
Okay, great, thank you mister.
You're my lucky charm Daniel.
That was some bloke offering us a project.
He's coming to look at our work,
and when he shows up, try and look vaguely competent.
What is this word?
Yeah.
Hi.
Hello.
Kate and Ben Gilmour to see Jason Walsh.
He's expecting us.
Okay, I'll just let him know you're here.
Yes, come in.
Hey.
Thanks for squeezing us in.
Please take a seat.
You must be thrilled about Tom.
It's bound to be a bit,
just until we get to know him again.
How can I help?
It's slightly awkward.
We'd rather it didn't get back to Jodie.
What's your opinion on Daniel?
My opinion?
I haven't really spent enough time...
What he means is, do you actually believe he's Tom?
Well, it's no longer a question of what anyone believes.
The DNA tells us that there is a 99.65% match.
Ben, he's your son.
But can't these things ever be wrong?
Absolutely not, no.
We want another test, for confirmation.
Look, I understand what an enormous shock this must be.
It is life changing...
We don't think it's him.
What you mean is, he doesn't match
your idea of how Tom might look,
but there really is no doubt who he is,
medically, legally, in any form you care to choose...
All the same, we want another test.
Well, I am sorry that Tom's return
might inconvenience you.
What?
Come on Kate, when Tom disappeared,
Ben was with Jodie.
Now he's back, you're naturally concerned.
How fucking dare you?
Hang on...
Well that's your worry, isn't it?
That's why you planted the seed of doubt in Ben's head.
Tom's home, Ben and Jodie can go back
to being a loving family.
- We have Lola. - But that's not even...
You arrogant prick.
Do you know what, I'm just gonna come out and say it,
the family have been thinking it all these years.
Thinking what?
What happened to Tom that day down at the lake
is largely down to you, but you know that, don't you?
- Jason... - If you hadn't been
putting all of your energies
into stealing my sister's husband,
then we might not have taken
our eyes off the ball long enough
for someone to snatch Tom away!
Fuck you!
That's just wrong.
We're gonna get another test done,
with or without your help.
Fuck.
Found him.
Okay.
Told you something'd turn up, always does.
_
Jodie, Jodie, where are ya?
I'm coming to see ya.
Heya Daniel!
What you doing?
Working all hours and still not getting paid.
I know a good lawyer.
Nice car.
Cheers.
Hey, I was gonna call you.
All right?
I did a home DNA test before the police one.
Whoa.
They just sent me the results.
And?
We're not a match.
Wait...
And I don't understand, because the police one said...
Those tests are notoriously bad, all right?
Now, we have to rely on the police results.
That is Tom.
You only have to look at him, yeah?
I want you to arrange a visit for me to see Mark.
All right, why?
There's something I need to know.
Look, Jodes, he's looking at 20 years.
He will say anything to get out of doing that.
Jason, please.
All right, okay.
Look, let me think.
All right, I'll call the prison,
but you'll need your passport.
That's fine, I'll get it now.
Okay, all right.
Well, what about Daniel?
- Do you want me to... - Could you ask Yas
- to look after him for me? - Yes, of course.
But make the call.
Yeah.
He won't tell you the truth, you know.
Okay, look, I'll get it done, it's fine.
Hi Yasmin.
Ah, come to lend a hand?
Yeah.
The suit, you know, otherwise I'd be...
Right.
Listen, Jodie's had to rush off.
Ah, of course she has.
Something about a social worker,
so I said I'd take Daniel 'til she gets back.
Sure.
Hey, big man.
Do you fancy a spin in that car?
Yeah.
Is that okay?
Just don't let him try and sell you anything.
Come on.
Thanks.
What car is that?
I wasn't sure you'd agree to see me.
How is he?
He's fine.
If anything happens to him...
He's fine.
You're here to tell me you made a terrible mistake, right?
Wait, wait.
Maybe we can help each other.
This is fast.
Aren't you worried about the police?
Couldn't catch us if they tried, mate.
Do you wanna drive?
What, me?
Yeah, you.
Look, I'll teach you.
We've got some private land coming on, just up here.
You got a phone on ya?
No.
Good, because we are going off grid.
When we were at the show home,
I was asking about your wife.
What?
About how she died.
How does that have any bearing on what you've done to me?
I need to know.
Why?
You've got Daniel, you've put me in here,
isn't that enough for you?
Please, Mark.
I told Daniel and anyone else
who asked that it was cancer.
Just that word seems to stop any further conversation.
But that was a lie.
Daniel was four when it happened.
When what happened?
When she killed herself.
I don't think she could live with the guilt.
What do you mean?
She was this funny, warm, amazing person.
We were happy.
She wanted a baby.
She really wanted a baby, so we got pregnant.
And it was, yeah...
it was wonderful, but...
when the baby was born, she...
changed.
It was like she resented Daniel...
and she...
she hated me.
And most of all I think she hated herself for,
you know, how she felt.
The doctor said it would pass.
Anyway, one morning...
we, Daniel and I,
went to do a shop, and...
when we got back
to the house I opened the door,
and then I went back to the car to get the bags,
and then when I came inside,
he was just standing there staring up at her.
She hung herself, she'd hung herself.
He didn't understand what he was seeing.
He's completely wiped it, thank God.
I wish I could.
My God.
I'm so sorry.
I don't know what to.
I understand how it feels to lose someone.
I know that feeling, like there's nothing
you wouldn't do to try to get them back.
I wanted to believe it was Tom so much,
I couldn't think straight.
I don't know how you'll ever forgive me.
I don't understand the DNA result.
I did a test at home on my own.
It wasn't a match.
How could they be different?
I don't know.
I'm gonna go to the police now, they'll re-do the test,
and I'm gonna get you out of here, I promise.
The guy with the job offer never showed up.
I'll call you when some work comes in, yeah?
Thanks fellas.
You like it at Jodie's house?
It's not for long.
She's into you man.
I'm telling you, it's not like that.
Pull over, I'll walk the rest.
I'll take you to the door.
Pull over, I want to walk.
I'll see you around.
Get him now, get him!
I'll get him.
C'mon you bastard.
Don't fucking wait around.
Go after him!
Get him!
Come on!
Cowards, all of you!
Hey fellas, who wants some of this?
Is that for real?
Bro.
What the fuck?
Come on!
- Come on now, come on! - Go, go, go.
Go, go!
Hey.
You're a fucking crazy man, you know that?
Coming from you.
And here we are.
It's been a while.
Hey.
You and Daniel still at work?
What?
Why would he say that?
Well, where are they?
Okay, I have to go.
Who lives here?
My parents used to have it as a kind of weekend getaway.
Once the disappearance happened,
then no one wanted to come, so I bought it.
Keep it in the family.
Can we drive the car?
Yeah, 'course we can.
There's something I wanna show you first.
Can I speak to Jason Walsh please?
It's his sister.
What?
Just down there.
Here we go.
Now,
what do you think?
Hello.
Mom?
Jodie?
Mom, is Jason with you?
No.
I have to find him now.
Well, he's certainly not here.
Jason's got Daniel.
What do you mean?
He lied to Yasmin and he's taken Daniel somewhere.
He's missed a meeting at his chambers,
they don't know where he is,
and now the police are looking for him
to do another DNA test.
Jason has Daniel.
Yes mom, that's what I said.
Look, I'm worried.
I don't know where the hell they are.
I think I might know where they are.
Where?
You come and get me, now.
I thought we were gonna drive the car?
It's just so peaceful out here, isn't it?
I mean, look at that view.
I'm a bit cold.
Yeah.
You still haven't worked it out yet, have ya?
Worked what out?
You're not Tom, all right?
And Jodie isn't your mom.
I just needed to keep her out of prison.
But the test said.
You can make everything lie.
My dad.
He's innocent, and he is your dad,
and now he's probably gonna serve 20 years, if he's lucky.
Where are we going?
I'm just gonna take you
to the middle of the lake, all right?
Where the water is nice and clear,
and you can see straight to the bottom.
I never thought I'd be back here again.
Why would Jason bring Daniel here?
Let's go inside.
Daniel?
Hiya mom.
You're the last person I expected to see here.
Where's Daniel?
What do you mean?
Where is he, Jason?
Well he's with Yasmin, isn't he?
That's where I last saw him.
Daniel, where is he?
Are you okay?
I know he's here.
Look, Jode, have you flipped out?
That's enough now, Jason!
We have to put an end to this.
It's time!
You can tell her what you did...
or I will.
What do you mean, what he did?
Yeah mom, what do you mean?
Jason killed Tom.
Mom!
Mom, are you okay?
Get off.
I'm gonna call the police.
I'm gonna call...
Police, give me the phone, give me the phone...
Just calm the fuck down.
Why would she say that?
- I didn't kill Tom. - Tell me.
I loved Tom.
I loved him more than anybody.
I'm sorry, I was just in shock.
Of course I didn't kill him.
I was trying to distract Tom...
from what I saw that day.
What do you mean?
That day, down there, all of us down there.
You were the only one that didn't see it.
Mom was watching Tom,
and Ben and Kate, they'd been talking all day.
They'd barely left each other's sides.
I couldn't believe that you didn't notice.
And you were trying to light the barbecue,
but you couldn't get the thing going.
And then you came back up here,
you came to get matches or you came to get something.
And dad spilled his wine, mom got distracted,
and that's when I noticed,
that's when they took their chance, Kate and Ben.
Off they went into the forest,
and Tom followed because he wanted to follow his dad,
so I followed Tom...
because I wanted to protect him.
So we just, we played some hide and seek for a while.
I took him down to the lake,
because he had this...
little boat, do you remember?
And then it happened, I got this call,
and it was a job offer.
200 people applied for this job
and they called me, they called me to offer it to me,
and it was the best day of my life,
and then the call ended,
and I looked up,
and then I saw him,
and I tried,
I tried to revive him,
but he was gone.
Jodie, he was gone, and there was nothing
that anybody could do, and I knew then,
I knew that all our lives would never be the same again.
I knew that your life was ruined,
but it was me, I was the one who was supposed to be there
looking after him, and what law firm
would employ somebody who had done something like that?
So what did I do?
I thought, why should it ruin both of our lives?
And then I did it,
I pushed his body
further out into the water.
Tom!
I re-joined the others and I imagined
he'd be found within a few minutes
and then no-one would be to blame,
or then we would all be to blame.
But he must have sunk,
and too much time had passed for me
to be able to tell the truth.
You knew.
My God, you knew!
No, she didn't know until I told her
about a year later, when I imagined his body,
it would never be found.
And I wanted to tell you Jodie, I promise you,
I wanted to tell you, but what did you say to me, mom?
You said, "What would be the point?
"What good would it do?"
So we kept it quiet.
The DNA test?
Well if Daniel was Tom, then all these problems,
all these problems would just disappear.
So I had the power, I had the connections,
I had the results changed, but I did it for you Jodie.
I did it for you because you were broken
and I was trying my best to make amends for what I'd done.
I was trying to give Tom back to you.
What?
Well if Daniel, if Daniel got tested again,
then I couldn't let that happen, I couldn't.
So where's Daniel now then, Jason?
He's down by the lake.
Let me out.
He's down by the...
Get of my way.
Listen to me.
Jason, just get out of my way!
Daniel!
Jodie!
Daniel!
Jodie, I'm here.
Daniel.
Oh thank God, oh thank God.
Jason, Jason.
Go, go!
Okay, get in, get in the boat.
Jodie!
Fucking get here.
Jodie!
Jodes!
Jodes, just come here.
Go away!
Faster.
Jodie.
Get away from us!
Listen to me.
Jason, leave us the fuck alone.
Jodes!
Jodes.
Jase.
I'll fucking.
Jode!
Help!
Jode, please!
Help.
I can't breathe.
Jason.
